they're having a 5.1 listening party on Tuesday! (shame its sold out or i'd be there..)
"We're incredibly happy to be hosting the world premiere of the new 5.1 Surround Sound mix of Jimi Hendrix's legendary 'Electric Ladyland' at our new home at Aures London on Tuesday 6 November. Hear it loud, in full, in the dark, like never before at our immersive listening session on the venue's formidable 50-speaker sound system.
The new mix was created by Jimi's original producer, Eddie Kramer, as part of the new 50th anniversary boxset from the album and it's the first time a Surround Sound mix of one of his albums has been created. One attendee will win a copy of the boxset."
Jimi Hendrix 'Electric Ladyland' 5.1 Surround Sound Premiere
Damn that sounds awesome, in the dark (so they understand critical listening of surround material) to boot! 50-speakers! Yes. And only a 30 min commute after to the Brick Lane for some onion bhajis. Sold.
